Re: Missing music in Gateway (MT-32 mode)

Posted on 2014-01-17, 23:49

The other Legend games suffer from this problem too? Just wondering. Gateway II: Homeworld plays all of the music without issues. Only the first one does. If you have a 100% Roland MPU-401 compatible card* or an actual Roland MPU-401 card in your old PC, the music would play normally in every …

Tested Sid Meier's Civilization with SBMPU401 program (found on here with the help of Google) <-- without SoftMPU running, and the music works surprisingly, even with Police Quest I: VGA, the game works with the program listed above... I'll be surprised if NHL Hockey 95 would work with both SBMPU401 …

Yep that works under real DOS/SoftMPU too. Sad to say, I will probably implement a similar workaround in SoftMPU (I already turn features on/off based on which game is running). I can't see myself getting the time to properly debug this anytime soon. I, myself, am making a bug fix by applying the …

Got those in the dosbox source folder along with the version numbers, and the autogen.sh file gives minimal errors, but requires the others to be in the same directory, and 2 m4 files are missing while the others are copied over to the /bin directory (where the m4.exe command resides); I did install …

Welp, I'm doing my best to compile the DOSBox program, but when I run the autogen.sh, it says: Ben@W8PRO-PC /dosbox-0.74 $ ./autogen.sh Generating build information using aclocal, autoheader, automake and autoconf This may take a while ... ./autogen.sh: line 8: aclocal: command not found ./autogen. …

OK, got my new MPU-IPC-T up and running and tested a few things out :cool: - In Gateway the second piece of music plays fine with the Roland card, so this is a bug with SoftMPU. The same problem happens with Dosbox too (and of course SoftMPU's high level logic uses the Dosbox code). I will probably …

MB_PRO connection on a Sound Blaster Vibra 16 card?

Posted on 2014-01-05, 06:14

in DOS
Quick question, and I might've posted in the wrong area, but on a Sound Blaster Vibra 16xv PnP ISA sound card, there is a pinout labeled MB_PRO. Out of curiosity, what is that for? Adding front end audio jacks on the front end of a computer in case the audio cables are too short for the back? Found …

Another idea for an alternative output method... serial port output for use with modules that support it (SC-7, SC-55MKII, SC-55ST, MU5/10). Pointless or useful for laptops/machines with no MPU installed? Wouldn't hurt to use a serial port as an alternative output method since laptops/desktops …
